Double N+ Wireless USB Adapter
USING THE BELKIN WIRELESS NETWORKING UTILITY
Configuring your Adapter to use Security
At this point, you should already have your wireless router (or access
point) set to use WPA or WEP. In order for you to gain wireless
connection, you must set your Double N+ Wireless USB Adapter to use
the same security settings.
Changing the Wireless Security Settings
Your Belkin Double N+ Wireless USB Adapter supports advanced
security technology, including Wi-Fi Protected Access™ 2 (WPA2™),
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), and Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (WPS),
which simplifies the setup of a wireless network. WPS uses familiar
methodologies, such as typed Personal Identification Number (PIN)
entry and push-button network-name configuration. This automatically
enables strong WPA/WPA2 data encryption and authentication.
Using Wi-Fi Protected Setup
Both versions of Wi-Fi Protected Setup (push button and PIN) are
supported with the Belkin utility on Windows 2000 and XP. The hardware
push button method is supported on Windows Vista only when the
optional utility is installed.
When attempting to connect to a WPS-enabled network, the following
screen will appear:
1. Personal Identification Number (PIN) Method: In this method, your
Double N+ Wireless USB Adapter generates a PIN to be entered into
your router.
2. Advanced Configuration Method: For manual connection to a
secured network.
